Things to do in Flinders Island

  1. Strzelecki National Park

    Visitors love to stamp up the 756m-high Mt Strzelecki in Strzelecki National Park. The walk starts 12km south of Whitemark on Trousers Point Rd, from where you point your trousers up the well-signposted track (four to five hours return). The views from the top are gob-smacking. Mt Strzelecki is one of the peaks in the Three Peaks Race.

  2. Furneaux Museum

    Nearby at Emita is the engrossing Furneaux Museum, housing a variety of Aboriginal artefacts (including beautiful shell necklaces), sealing and shipwreck relics, and a display on the seasonal mutton-birding industry.

  3. Flinders Island Bakery

    The only decent coffee on the island is at the only bakery. Try a wallaby and red-wine pie or pick up some preservative-free bread made with rainwater. Open on weekends in summer.
